RE: [PHP-DB] search question
it depends on how you design your database. When I know I will have this situation, I design a table named keyWords. Put one work per record and assign each word an ID number. Then I create a join table between keyWords and whatever table they relate to. The join table only contains 2 fields, the pk from keyWords and the pk from the other table. Then I ad 1 record to the join table for each keyword that relates to each record in the other table. It's simple then to join the 3 tables in such a manner as to quickly find the records in the other table that relate to a specific key word.

Re: [PHP-DB] Trying to speed up php output from mysql
Does your process hang or simply is too long? Perhaps the limiting factor is not the writing speed, but a memory requirement problem. Try to compute how long it should take: - do your row processing after a SELECT ... LIMIT 1000 clause - time how long it takes, and extrapolate Then you will know.

[PHP-DB] PHP and Mail under Apache Windows?
Hi there everyone, I've just setup Apache 2.0 under Windows XP and LOVE it, PHP and MySQL work fine and people are saying how fast the server is. However, I am stumped on one thing - how the heck does I set it up so Mail will work? With my old server (Linux) it was already configured, but from what I understand I have to do something to get it to send mail from Apache/PHP now? As a note, under linux I used sendmail. Please help, I am so confused I don't know where to start to get the mail working. Thanks for everything Regards Chris Payne

nope - an id is used for other things (like javascript, style sheets, DHTML etc). They shouldn't affect your variable names.

[PHP-DB] Resubmit on page refresh.
I have a page that maintains a very simple list of items. The page shows the
current items on the list and provides an input field for the user to add
new items to the list. Everything works great. The only problem I'm having
is that each time the user clicks the Refresh button on the browser, I get
that dialog box telling me The page cannot be refreshed without sending the
information. Then the last value is added to the database again and again
and again each time the user hits the Refresh button. In know that's a
browser feature that I can't control, but is there a way that after
submitting the information to the database using the form and associated SQL
statements, I can unset the variables. I've already tried unset($sql) and
unset($variable), but to no avail.
Here's the php code from the top of the page:
if (isset($_POST[newStatus]))
{
$thisStatus=addslashes($_POST[newStatus]);
$addStatusSQL=INSERT INTO status values(Null,'$thisStatus');
mysql_query($addStatusSQL)
or die(mysql_error());
unset($_POST[newStatus]);
unset($addStatusSQL);
}
.
.
.
Many wondrous things happen in here...
.
.
.
And here's the form code from the bottom of the page:
form action=bookStatAdmin.php method=post
table
trtdinput type=text
name=newStatus/input/td/tr
trtdnbsp;/td/tr
trtdinput type=submit
name=submit/input/td/tr
/table
/form
Any suggestions?
Thank in advance.

RE: [PHP-DB] Selecting one random column from MySQL
How can I select one random column from a MySQL table? You can't, in one query. You can use the MySQL_ function to get a list of all the columns, though, and then use PHP to select a random column and construct an SQL statement. If you need to do something like this, though, there is something wrong in your database schema... ---John Holmes... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP-DB] Resubmit on page refresh.
I really hope you just subscribed, because this question already been
asked today...and yesterday... You should search the archive before you
post.
Anyhow, the solution to your problem can be solved by using a
processing page that does the insert into the database and then
redirects to the main page that shows the list. The processing page
should not display anything at all, just do the insert and redirect.
Then the refresh will just refresh the page it was redirect to, and have
nothing to do with the processing.

With the format you have, strtotime should work, so try date(F d, Y, strtotime($date_test)) (P.S.
